4/30/2018 - pawa wrote: 89 pointsSurprisingly vivid mousse. Perhaps a bit over the top but still drinking well. Purchased in October 1999 and one of the first five bottles in my collection. Now every bottle from that initial purchase have been consumed so it was kind of an historic experience drinking this one and remembering how life was back in 1999... |

5/6/2017 - pawa wrote: 96 pointsMy best Champagne experience in many years. This wine changed from orange peel to red berries to...maybe chocolate...I don't remember because it was finished so quickly as we both liked it a lot. Beautiful copper hue. Simply astonishing. |

7/29/2013 - pawa wrote: 93 pointsTotally amazing after more than ten years in half-bottle. Difficult to pair with anything but smoked almonds or simply enjoyed by itself. Just as much as I love this wine my wife hates it. Time for divorce? |

NV Pommery Champagne Rosé SpringtimeChampagne Blend more |
7/26/2011 - pawa wrote: 91 pointsThe lightest rosé Champagne I've ever had. Could they have added too little red wine to the bottle or can colour fade over time even in a green bottle??? Apart from the colour, it was a really good showing and much better than the Clouet 1998 we had prior to this bottle. |

7/26/2011 - pawa wrote: 81 pointsThe best with this wine was the nose. The looks and taste reminded more of French Apple Cider than Champagne. I will have to try another bottle shortly to see if this was an isolated happening. I have always liked this producer so I'm hoping it was just bad luck in a bottle. It rarely happens that my wife declines a Champagne refill but this was one of those rare moments. |
